Ancient Egypt Workshop Amina’s Journey
Step back thousands of years and meet Amina, a 12-year-old girl living in Ancient Egypt.
In this unique and immersive Ancient Egypt workshop, pupils enter an Egyptian tomb filled with objects, clues and stories from the past. Through digital exploration, team challenges and live interaction with our AI character Amina, children discover what life was like beside the River Nile.
But Amina needs their help.
Her true Egyptian name was taken from her long ago. To uncover it, pupils must investigate the tomb, complete a series of challenges and collect the letters that reveal her forgotten identity.
And the most exciting part?
Your pupils can speak directly with Amina, ask their own questions about Ancient Egypt and gather clues to help solve the quest.
It is Ancient Egyptian history brought to life in a way children will never forget.
